We need the right attitude and the right motivation - that can decide the match above everything else.Collection: Attitude
To become a great player, you've got to show real dedication and commitment to football, and you've got to be very humble and hard-working. And, above all, you've got to fight to make your dreams come true.Collection: Great
We will respect all our opponents, as we always do.Collection: Respect
I wake up every day with a smile, and in that sense, I feel the same as I did when I arrived at Real Madrid in 2005.Collection: Smile
Being the captain is a great privilege and a responsibility to lead a great group with different cultures.Collection: Great
I'm a very temperamental person, but when you are wearing the captain's armband for Real Madrid or the national team, it's best to express yourself in a different way. You have to maintain a sense of unity - a good atmosphere where everyone feels happy is one of the keys to success, and that's something you shouldn't lose.Collection: Success
Whoever says Real Madrid are dead is always proved wrong in the long term.
You have to learn from bad moments.
You cannot force somebody to be a different person.
There are no words to describe the Clasico. It is totally different and the most important game in the world.
It's typical at Real Madrid that we often seem to be going through a revolution.
We all have our opinions; that's only human.
I think of myself as someone who gives everything, and I wake up every day wanting to keep growing.
It takes many years to prove yourself the best in the world.
Ignorance makes you very bold.
Since Carlo Ancelotti has arrived, he had emphasised hard work and intensity, and now that is what Real Madrid are associated with. He has playing experience, which makes him different to other coaches.
We have to keep calm and stick together; that's the key to success.
It's true that when I started out, I was more a fan of attacking players and one in particular: the Brazilian Ronaldo, Ronaldo Luis Nazario de Lima. Another of my idols was Claudio Caniggia, an Argentinian forward with long hair, who I liked a lot. It's because of him that I started to grow my hair long!
It is good to have competition.
Sometimes you lose; that is football.
You can never take Madrid for dead.
Disrespect is bad for the atmosphere around a team.
Flattery and criticism are always in our profession.
Pique has been a great centre-back.
Madrid always opens its doors to great players.
When one loses, it's easy to focus on the refereeing decisions.
It is a mistake to mix politics and sport.
Real Madrid go for everything right from the start of the season. They always fight for the three competitions.
We all know the demands at this club, but I'm ready for this responsibility to make sure every Madridista is happy.
At the end of the day, the players and the coach have to talk - that's what consolidates the relationship.
We must thank our fans for their support.
At Real Madrid, we have many good players that the team can learn from.
In the end, individual titles are achieved with the help of all your team-mates.
I would love to win the Ballon d'Or, but honestly, I'm not even thinking about it.
I need to keep quiet and do my talking on the pitch.
Barcelona are not invincible.
There are sometimes easier games and others harder, but the Champions League always requires enormous concentration.
Mourinho is serious and demanding.
The team needs a leader to handle everything with rules and constant stability. Mourinho is the ideal man for that job, and we are delighted about it.
The margin for error in the Champions League is tiny.
I think Totti would've had no problem playing in another big club. He's a born hitman, and great players always find a way to fit into a team.
When the list is made of the all-time best players, Totti will certainly be in there. I really believe he will be remembered as one of the greats.
I think about those who supported me and put up with me, including my wife, my children, my parents, and all Madridistas.
Defending for a team as offensive as Real Madrid isn't that easy.
I don't care whether I play on the right or in the centre. All I want is for the coach to have faith in me.
It's up to the coach to decide who is in the best shape to play each match.
We must take on each match as best we can and try to recover from each as quickly as possible.
I always said that when Madrid win, it wasn't just because of Ronaldo, Kaka, or another, and when you lose, it is not fair to blame the failures on these people alone.
I know the English fans will treat players as they deserve, and I'm not worried about that in the slightest.
As long as there are chances, we have to fight to the end. That's Madrid's philosophy.
